Set in the Apache-conflict era of the nineteenth-century Southwest, The Lonely Men is a novel built around the pressures of its historical setting. In The Lonely Men, Louis L Amour spins the tale of a man who must elude an Apache trap only to discover that his greatest enemy might be very close to home. Tell Sackett had fought his share of Indians and managed to take something of value from his battles: a deep and abiding respect. But that respect is lost when Apache braves kidnap his nephew, forcing Tell to cross the border into the Sierra Madres to bring the boy back. What troubles Tell more, though, is the boy s mother: Could she possibly be inventing a rescue mission to deliver her husband s brother into an ambush?
